RARE EXAMPLES OF THE SCRIMSHAW ART 


THE MOST IMPORTANT COLLECTION 


EVER OFFERED AT PUBLIC SALE 


NUMBERS 17-67 
SCRIMSHAW, OR SCRIMSHAWING 


SCRIMSHAW :—A nautical word of unstable orthography; origin unknown. 
To engrave various fanciful designs on shells, whales’ teeth, walrus tusks, 
etc.; in general, to execute any piece of ingenious mechanical work. 
(Sailor’s language.) —Century Dictionary. 

One of the most fruitful sources of amusement to a whale fisherman and 
one which often so engrosses his time and attention as to cause him to 
neglect his duties, is known as scrimshawing. Serimshawing, which by 
the way is the more acceptable form of the term, is the art of manufac- 
turing useful and ornamental articles at sea.—Fisheries of U.S. V-II-231. 


The above are the only two technical definitions obtainable. Scrimshaw- 
ing, however, meant much to the old “salt”, marooned at sea as he often 
was for indefinite periods. It was not only his expression of individual 
art, but also the medium through which he recorded the incidents and 
impressions of his hazardous daily life. 

The subjects, or compositions of subjects, were naturally of the sea or 
whale fishing, as this was really the extent of the old “‘salt’s” existence. 
The actual execution was done either with a jack-knife, or preferably, a 
sail needle, which was large enough for the sailor to handle and at the 
same time strong enough and sharp enough to make an excellent etching 
tool. 

Opinions differ as to when the earliest example of the art appeared, but 
we are sure that some specimens date back to the late 18th century, and 
that more and probably better specimens were done during the period 
from 1830 to 1850, when whale fishing was most intensively and ex- 
tensively followed. 

This collection is regarded by Marine authorities as the most compre- 
hensive and best executed ever assembled. It contains exquisite and 
novel specimens done in practically every quarter of the globe, from the 
frozen Arctic and Antarctic to the tropics, by Mariners of American and 
Anglo-American origin.

A RARE COLLECTION OF SHIPS’ PEWTER 
SILVER AND GLASS 


NUMBERS 184-208 


ENGRAVED SHIPS’ SILVER AND PEWTER 


Possibly no other collector has shown the deep interest in assembling the 
purely utilitarian marine objects of our old ships as has Mr. Waugh. This 
is not strange, as he is of “Cape Cod Folks’, which is synonymous to 
“of the Sea.” 

His people have filled every position ‘board ship’ from cabin boy and 
foremast hand to mate and captain; so it is but natural that his thought 
should trend strongly toward the intimate things of the sailor’s life; the 
things with which they actually lived. 

This trend is exemplified in the wonderful group of plates, mugs, etc., 
which includes both the pewter of the foc’sle, for use by the seamen, and 
the more pretentious silver of the Master’s Cabin. 

Collecting these specimens entailed much time and labor. Secured at 
various times and in places ranging from the homes of the direct 
descendants of the old whalers, to the fast disappearing old ‘Chandler’s 
Shop’, they represent a collection which it is safe to say cannot be 
duplicated. 

Incidentally, the old ship chandlers’ shops along the Delaware River front 
in Philadelphia proved unusually productive of this sort of material. There, 
under much old sail cloth and early gear and tackle of all description, were 
unearthed a great many of the pewter plates in Mr. Waugh’s collection.

In the midst of the River Thames, opposite Somerset House, a large

century a band of sailors who had returned and settled down formed 
a society called the “Sirens”. They settled and rebuilt the old hull 
into living quarters. The upper deck offered an enchanting view of 
the City of London and the river. The first floor or lower deck was 
fitted as a dancing room, in which the musically inclined members 
formed an orchestra. Here the “Sirens” gathered of an evening and 
enjoyed their grog.

Very few of these Admiralty models of the smaller ships of the 18th

for the Dockyards were built for all of the first and second rate 
ships, but the sloops-of-war and men-of-war not of the line were 
considered of less importance. The “Lion” however was an able 
little vessel and distinguished herself in many encounters. She is 
listed as one of the ships cruising in American waters during the 
war of 1812.

command of Capt. Broke captured the American Frigate ‘“Chesa-

Lawrence was killed in this action, and there has always been a 
thought in the minds of naval historians that Lawrence was rash 
and impulsive to take the challenge of Capt. Broke at a time when 
the “‘Chesapeake”’ was refitting for sea and manned by a green crew. 
Capt. Lawrence, however, while mortally wounded gave this com-
